If you don’t keep your website software up-to-date, it may cause issues as upgrades to our servers occur. As per our policy on Outdated CMS Software, it’s the client’s responsibility to ensure the software is kept up-to-date.
If you need to maintain using a specific version of .NET or want to control when upgrades occur, your site will need to be hosted on a Virtual Private Server.
